Influence of molecular temperature on the coherence of fullerenes in a near-field interferometer

Klaus Hornberger, Lucia Hackermueller, Markus Arndt

We study C70 fullerene matter waves in a Talbot-Lau interferometer as a function of their temperature. While the ideal fringe visibility is observed at moderate molecular temperatu…

Talbot-Lau interferometry with fullerenes: Sensitivity to inertial forces and vibrational dephasing

A. Stibor, K. Hornberger, L. Hackermueller +2

We discuss matter wave experiments in a near-field interferometer and focus on dephasing phenomena due to inertial forces. Their presence may result in a significant reduction of t…

Theory of decoherence in a matter wave Talbot-Lau interferometer

Klaus Hornberger, John E. Sipe, Markus Arndt

We present a theoretical framework to describe the effects of decoherence on matter waves in Talbot-Lau interferometry. Using a Wigner description of the stationary beam the loss o…

Decoherence of matter waves by thermal emission of radiation

Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Bjoern Brezger +2

Emergent quantum technologies have led to increasing interest in decoherence - the processes that limit the appearance of quantum effects and turn them into classical phenomena. On…
